In this episode of Chaptered Minds, we explore The Death of Expertise by Tom Nichols, a provocative examination of the growing distrust in experts and professionals in today’s society. Our AI hosts discuss Nichols’s argument on how the internet, social media, and the democratisation of information have contributed to the rejection of established knowledge and expertise. This episode delves into the consequences of this cultural shift, including misinformation, populism, and the erosion of informed debate. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation on the challenges of preserving expertise in an age of widespread skepticism and the importance of critical thinking.
